While I don't agree that all Social Media Experts look like this, I have seen some that do and you would be wise to go the other way.

All for the small sum of $179.00
Turned out I already had one, but I was using it to read MicroSD cards since that's what the original use is. I got this one with a cheap MicroSD card from Ebay so I can't think that they cost $179.00 a pop.

Cingular has managed to give me what I can say has been both the best and worst customer service I've ever received from a company. But now, here's a rebate scam they have running.
I got this as a $50 rebate for a phone upgrade. Notice, the phrase "DEBIT" boldly printed above the hologram. I cropped off the part above this where it explains that the last four digits of my phone number are to be used as the pin number. Makes enough sense, until I tried to use it and it didn't work. Everywhere I used it it got denied. Very very annoying and frustrating to have a card denied, tried a second time, denied again, and then pull out another card dodging the angry eyes behind me in line. In one instance, I was getting denied and the cashier told me she had the same problem. She says it didn't work for gas or groceries, but it did work at Target. I went straight home to find the paperwork that came with the card.
Luckily, I found it and discovered that in the fine print it explains that "Oh, you know how it says DEBIT on the card, well ignore that. This card can only be used when scanned as CREDIT. Oh, and if you want to get gas with it, it won't work outside at the pump, you have to have the cashier slide it. And don't forget, the card expires in a month, so shop fast or you don't get jack." Ridiculous.
Part of the JavaScript code that was attached to an e-mail as a fake invoice in a zip file.
Once the user opens the malicious zip file the JavaScript code is executed and the ransomware software is downloaded from an infected website.
When the ransomware software is running it will encrypt all files that match particular extensions.
After encryption, a message (displayed on the user's desktop) instructs them to download the Tor browser and visit a specific criminal-operated Web site for further information.

Elena is 30 with her birthday on May 27th. Height is 5,7 and weight 54 kg. She lives in Kirov. She has finished medical university and worked as the second surgeon in a small clinic for 3 years.
She is single with neither children, nor boyfriend and sometimes feels very lonely. It’s difficult to know why “her” pictures appear in scam forums.
Her father cleared off when her mother was pregnant, and so was brought up by just her mother who has since died.
She never got round to asking me for money
Every now and then I stumble across this AdWords ad for a scammer who stole one of my photos to help support his phony get rich quick story. It's not the copyright issue that gets me, so much as the fact that my photo is enabling his scam.
I'd report it as AdWords abuse, but the binary choice they offer when reporting abuse is unauthorized credit card charges, or suspicious email impersonating AdWords; you must pick one. Seems broken.
When I got a new email claiming to be from Paypal and saying there have been lots of fradulent attempts to get passwords, I actually thought it might be real, but sure enough, clicking on the button link in the email brought up a fake site phishing for my login details and money.
The email is dennouncing the practice of phishing while at the same time they are doing it. You've got to give them credit for being clever enough to think of this -- my hat is off to the guys that had the smarts and the stones to pull this kind of underhanded shit.

i am getting closer and closer to finishing a novel that i have been writing for the last few years, it is a semi-autobiographical fictional tale of a street artist named jerm, or a man named jeremiah, i'm not sure.
it might just be a love story, but it isn't.
the same story is told simultaneously from the perspectives of jeremiah and stephanie camden, a person of interest.
the comment below is the very first unedited rough draft of chapter 1.
it has since been edited extensively but i thought i'd start by showing my work, this old version was the background layer of the 'cascading confession'.
let me know what you think.
